I already read, that people think 2023 was not the stronges year for this genre. But maybe you have still something that surprises you in a positive way or you play and older game again?
3·11 months ago- Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion: The First day i finished at the start of the year was Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion. I think Zack is such a nice Char and i don’t know if it good they add him to the Remake, but maybe i will like it. Still this game is so broken, i was a glas canon. One hit everything but got one hit as well. Had fun with it but only finished 80% of the big big big side content because it got to repetetive.
- Forspoken: Ohh i like this battle system…still the game has so much flaws…but the boss battle were so nice. I had fun, nothing much more to say, i can’t defend this game but like it.
- Fire Emblem Engage: My personal game of the year. I played it more than 200 hours and think it is one of the best Fire Emblem, because instead of three houses, it’s main focus, the tactical gameplay is so good again.
- Valkyrie Profile Lenneth: Hmmm, i don’t thik this game age very well to be honest. Some things are good, but wasn’t that happy about to play it.
- Final Fantasy XVI: Still need to finish that game what will happen over christmas holidays for sure. Well…not a to big fan of that game but at the same time i think it is well made. I haven’t finish it so far because of the mmropg like side quest and the low boring parts between the exiting parts.
- Redemption Reaper: I start that game because i wasn’t in the mood for FFXVI anymore. Just need anything with tactical or turn based battle system and randomly choose this game. It looks bad, it’s rather a simple game, not the best tactical game. But i like the music of the game, that makes me happy playing it and i was satisfied with the ending of the game. Story was simple but the ending let me leave the game with a good mood.
- Soul Hackers 2: Startet this game in 2022, played it for 20 hours this year again until i got bored by the reallly really bad dungeon desgin. Story is good enough, so i want to finish it some day, i’m almost at the end.
- Start Ocean the First Depature R: Don’t like the battle system, but kind of liked the game as a whole.
- Star Ocean the Second Story R: Battle system got a little bit better, the characters got a bit better, the gaphic is quite nice and the story is better writen than the remake of the first.
- Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn: I don’t know why they made this low effort DLC with lot lot of side content and a short, but nice, story. I like the base game and it’s more of the same if you play the story, but the side content is just unnessesary.
